I can fake my identity and try to look happy,
but its all just a cover.
Take a swig from the flask and remove the last mask
only to find another.

There was once a time when I knew myself,
but now I'm not so sure.
All semblance of self-worth lay eroding in the dirt,
and its all thanks to her.

It's not really her fault, I'm truly to blame.
I grew selfish out of fear.
Afraid of being alone, I couldn't let her go
and now she's nowhere near.
A quick freestyle that I did.

I repeat myself over
To read your expression
Not to hear you say it back.

I watch as your eyes
Never fully meet mine
And I repeat until they do.

Sometimes it takes 10 times
Others it takes 2.

You whisper it in my ear
As we make sweet love
You send shivers down my spine.

Sometimes I question
Not if you don't mean it
But how you mean it.

It's impossible and                                                                                                    I emphasize on the impossibility of                                                                        Conquering good thoughts anytime                                                                      Simply because they carry inside them                                                                  True love that we sometimes lack ...                                                                      Those thoughts that are not easy to conquer ,then                                                They will remain endlessly with their permanent light                                       That guides us into the straight path ...                                                                  No one has the ability to abolish good thoughts                                                   That hug us and they even embrace us endlessly ...

How can I go on, when I know you've let me go?
When all around is biting cold and bitter snow?
I was warm and you left me here, on this cold mountain *****,
I'm sitting here in sorrow, is there any hope?
I decided to express the seasons as love poems.

When all thoughts
Are exhausted
I slip into the woods
And gather
A pile of shepherd’s purse.

I'll never find anyone who made me feel like you did. Again.
I'll never love so deep and raw. Again.
I'll always be searching for you again and. Again.
I'll never kiss the way we did. Again.
I'll never make love so passionately. Again.
I'll never compromise myself. Again
I'll never let things unsaid be my undoing. Again.
I'll always try. Again
I'll always want a love so unique. Again.
